Google isn't being forced to do anything. The judge specifically stated they're not doing injunctions or anything. If Epic has another problem, "you can come back."

Now, that's still a ruling, and a ruling helps dissuade Google from doing certain things, but there's not likely to be anything "forced" here.

Currently, it's.more that Google isn't being forced to do anything yet. The judge has said a few things he won't do, but the final judgement on what Google has to do are "up to Judge James Donato, who’ll decide what the appropriate remedies might be."
